Thanks Ripp. I have really enjoyed reading about Wally.

Sad how he was driven out of Moz with virtually nothing.

Cheers,

Chris




There is a really good article in this months SPORTS AFIELD about Wally and the model 70 he had in .375 H&H..give a brief history of Wally's life and really focuses on the Winchester as to how it withstood years of HARD work in the field..at one time spent about a week in the river until one of the locals finally found it for him and yet worked without so much as s hiccup for about 40 years..stated Wally had literally taken 1000's of head of game with the rifle..interesting piece..
